  P.S: Looking for collection recommendations. Seeking comfort, cursed whoever stole my phone, you little JJ.

  Without Wei Hong's urging, the fierce bull was also exerting its speed to the extreme at this time. It can only be considered a second-level top-tier ferocious beast now, and it is fundamentally impossible for it to contend with a third-level demon beast.

  Run, run desperately!

  However, the poisonous boar kept following closely, and suddenly, Wei Hong felt a spiritual attack coming from behind. Without thinking, he directly swung his knife to chop it down.

  Bang, bang, bang.

  Wei Hong sat on the cow's back, deflecting all the poisonous thorns. The fierce cow felt danger and its speed became extremely fast again. At this time, Wei Hong saw that the poisonous pig was constantly releasing demonic energy balls, and to his surprise, there was also toxic gas mixed in the demonic energy. He couldn't help but become even more cautious, and at the same time, he put two detoxification pills into his mouth.

  "Roar."

  The poisonous boar saw its own attack being completely blocked by the weak human, and it couldn't help but feel extremely irritated. At this time, it no longer used attacks, but instead used all its strength to chase after him.

  Row upon row of trees were directly trampled, and wherever they passed, the ground was littered with debris. The toxic substances left not a blade of grass standing, and some small ferocious beasts were poisoned to death.

  One hundred steps

  Seventy Steps

  Fifty Steps

  ……

  The speed was getting closer and closer, Wei Hong's face became more and more anxious. At this time, he saw that the fierce cow suddenly stopped abruptly, turned over directly, and threw Wei Hong far away. At the same time, it let out a few loud roars, and actually let Wei Hong go first.

  The fierce bull turned around and charged at the poisonous boar, seeing this scene, Wei Hong's eyes also turned bright red, at this moment, how could he escape.

  He drew a large knife from his back and rushed towards the poisonous pig to kill it, while also raising his momentum to its highest.

  Bang, bang, bang.

  Wei Hong had not yet reached the poisonous boar's side when he was directly blocked by the poison darts that filled the sky. Wei Hong raised his knife to chop, but was forced to retreat continuously by the poison darts. At this time, the fierce bull had already joined forces with the poisonous boar to attack.

  It must guard against the poisonous stinger and be careful of the poisonous gas in the nose of the poisonous pig, but the fierce bull itself is not a match for the poisonous pig, so it was directly knocked flying by the poisonous pig in an instant.

  Taking advantage of this momentum, the fierce bull made a sharp turn and ran wildly towards Wei Hong. Wei Hong naturally understood the bull's intention and also jumped up to run over.

  The poisonous boar was obviously enraged, at this time, it let out a loud roar, and with all its might, charged towards the man and beast. Wei Hong suddenly reacted and said to the big bison: "Everyone, let's split up first, one person running in one direction, hoping we can both escape, I'll find you later."

  As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Hong directly floated down and said to the silver bull with a hint of emotion: "Take care."

  "Wah, wah."

  The silver bull let out a few loud roars, turned around and ran in another direction, while Wei Hong directly ran towards the depths of the Hengshan mountain range. The poisonous boar, looking at both directions, suddenly had a fierce glint in its eyes and chased after Wei Hong.

  Wei Hong ran rapidly, at this moment, he made up his mind that once he was safe, he must practice his footwork, otherwise, this escape would be impossible to get away with.

  Wei Hong sprinted forward with his head down, using the power of his soul to easily dodge the poisonous pig's attack. Suddenly, Wei Hong felt a sense of unease because he sensed that it was getting quieter and quieter, even the birdsong and the roars of fierce beasts had disappeared.

  Here, they should have already reached the depths of the Hengshan Mountains. Wei Hong's face changed slightly. To think that here, not to mention fourth-level ferocious beasts, but even fifth-level ferocious beasts and the highest level, sixth-level demonic beasts, could also appear.

  Racing forward, the poisonous boar behind him was clearly visible, and it also slowed down its pace. A hint of hesitation flashed in its eyes. This place wasn't its territory at all, and what's more, this place was even more dangerous.

  In an instant, a bloody big mouth opened wide, and it didn't care about the giant thorns on the poisonous pig's body at all. It directly swallowed such a huge poisonous pig whole.

  Wei Hong turned back just in time to meet his gaze, which was slightly eerie. His eyes had a seven-colored hue, and Wei Hong felt a slight dizziness.

  "Seven-colored giant python, fifth-level ferocious beast."

  Wei Hong's face slightly contorted in a bitter expression. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have chased after that ugly old man. However, at this point, thinking more was useless, Wei Hong forced himself to calm down.

  The seven-colored giant python, without waiting for the venomous pig to be fully digested, directly chased after Wei Hong. Its speed was even faster, and in the blink of an eye, it was about to catch up with him. Moreover, its huge bloody mouth had already made Wei Hong feel a hint of bloodthirsty aura.

  He ran swiftly while looking around in all directions, and finally his gaze settled on a rock to the right.

  There is a huge transverse crack in the mountain, as if it was cut off by someone, and its depth cannot be measured.

  Wei Hong didn't have time to think, and with a fierce stamp on the ground, his body's speed was brought to its limit, like a long arrow, fiercely rushing towards the crack.

  Bang

  The head of the seven-colored giant python came in directly, but since it had not yet digested the poisonous pig, its belly was stuck. At this time, its skull turned wildly, causing the earth to crack and stones to splatter.

  Wei Hong let out a sigh of relief, originally intending to directly chop off the stuck Seven-Colored Giant Python's skull. However, the difference in strength was too great, and Wei Hong had no choice but to give up. At this time, looking at the dark expression ahead, Wei Hong gritted his teeth, preparing to head forward directly.

  If the seven-colored giant python digests the poisonous pig, then after entering, it will inevitably die, so it can only move forward and see if there is another exit in front.

  Wei Hong was walking in the dark canyon relying solely on his spiritual energy, when he suddenly felt a flow of air and saw some faint white light ahead. Wei Hong's face lit up with joy as he hastily ran towards it.

  At this moment, Wei Hong's eyes suddenly opened wide, and in front of him was an underground world with trees, flowers, and grass. Moreover, there was a pavilion inside, where a wine jug was placed.

  "Is anyone there?"

  Wei Hong shouted a few times, but no one answered him. At this time, he saw that there was a stone room in front of him, with a mechanism on the side. Wei Hong pressed his hand on it, and the stone door opened.

  Inside, it's not too big, with a huge stone bed. Wei Hong gently stroked it with his hand and actually felt a hint of coolness, which was slightly refreshing. It seems that practicing on this bed can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

  Inside the house, there was a round table. On the round table, surprisingly, there was a piece of paper. Wei Hong picked it up and took a look.

  "This place, I happened to encounter by chance, and unexpectedly cultivated here, which made me break through to the Emperor level. These miscellaneous objects are of no use to me, so I'll let them flow down, wishing to be useful to those who have affinity."

  The handwriting has become somewhat blurred due to time, and the signature is that of the King of Knives.

  The Martial Arts Continent, where the strong are numerous, but those who truly reach the King level are extremely rare. There's Liu Haixuan, known as the Eastern King, Shi Wuliang, known as the Southern King, and Shi Wujun, known as the Stone King. Wei Hong had already learned from his past memories that such individuals can be counted on one hand.

  And as for the one known as the King of Swords, there was only one person, and his life was also a wonder.

  At the age of seven, he condensed his martial energy and became a martial artist. At twelve years old, he specialized in knife techniques, and in the same year, he grasped three-tenths of the Knife Intent. By fifteen years old, he reached the level of Sect Master, at eighteen years old, he reached the level of Martial Ancestor, and at twenty years old, he reached the level of Martial Reverence. At thirty years old, he was crowned king. According to legend, by forty years old, he had reached the level of Martial Emperor, and his Knife Intent had reached nine-tenths.

  Known to the world as the 'King of Knives', this title is indeed well-deserved.
